LIVELY BARON didn't appear to get home over 4m at Cheltenham but ran well for a long way and has some useful form to his name. He's probably still on a decent mark and it would be no surprise if he took some catching around here. No Loose Change is sure to be popular having justified strong market support at Newbury on only his second start over fences but Problema Tic's stamina will be tested and Lackamon is closely matched with Brunswick Gold on Uttoxeter running. Kelso specialist Super Ally could find this company too hot and Loose Preformer's jumping went to pieces at Wetherby last time and he looks harshly treated on what he's achieved.
